Chapter 25 Loyalty
Movie Theater
New York City
Both being a fan of J. R. R. Tolkien, Justin and Thor went to go see the IMAX version of "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey". On their way out of the theater Justin could feel someone watching her. ~ I wonder. ~
Seeing the apprehension on her face Thor asked, "My lady. You can feel it too."
Justin nodded, "So we are being followed." Justin then leaned in close and whispered in his ear, "You know who it is?"
"Na my lady. It could be anyone." He whispered back, "Let's stay alert."
The two begin to walk to a nearby pizza joint to get something to eat. They both could still feel that they were being followed, but when they walked into the pizza place, the uneasy feeling lifted.
"I think they stopped." Justin said to Thor while they waited in line. "I don't feel it anymore."
Thor replied, "I think you're right my lady. What kind of pizza would you like?"
"Oh give me one with everything except olives."
He kissed her hand, "As my lady wishes."

Back at the mansion
Logan sat at the kitchen table nursing the bottle of Jack Daniels on the counter. "Fuck. Ah knew I shoulda told her how Ah felt." He said guzzling down his glass. "Too fucking late."
"Logan." Marie called him as she walked into the kitchen. "Ya ok suga?"
Logan looked at the young woman who he saw as his kid sister, "Damn Marie. Ah never shoulda left."
Marie sat next to him, "It'll be all right Logan. Professor J and Thor just started datin so ya might still have a chance."
Logan shook his head. "No Marie. The guy is a fucking God. A goddamn prince! There's no way Ah can compete with that."
Marie put her gloved hand on top of his and said, "Ya wrong. Ah know ya don't believe this Logan but ya are a good man. Ya know Ah know about what goes in that head of ya's so don't think I'm telling ya this out of pity."
"Marie..."
"Don't Logan. I never knew ya for a coward." Marie said standing up and started walking out the kitchen.
Logan angrily grabbed her and turned her, "Ah ain't no coward."
Marie looked him straight in the eyes, "Then fight for her." She quickly kissed him on the cheek and left.
Logan poured him another glass and said to himself with a smile, "Da kid has really grown up."

Justin and Thor's date went well. They made it back to the mansion a little after midnight. There was a barbecue/pool party planned for tomorrow and Justin was elected to make the desserts for the party so she had to get up early the next day.
Thor escorted her to the front door. "I had a great time with you my lady. I am sorry I will not be able to attend the social gathering tomorrow."
"It's all right." Justin reassured him "I understand you have other duties to attend too. I had a great time as well." Justin kissed him on the cheek, "Goodnight and thank you for the evening."
Thor blushed and kissed her hand, "The pleasure was mine my lady. I will call you tomorrow." Justin nodded then went inside.
As she was walking to the elevator she heard the TV in the rec room. She went to investigate to make sure no students were up after curfew only to find a sleeping Marie with Remy hugged up on the sofa with an episode of "Sons of Anarchy" playing.
"Well I see your evening went well." Justin said helping herself to some cheddar popcorn.
Remy smiled and kissed Marie on top of her head, "Remy had a great time in with his petite. How was ya evening?"
"Real good. The movie was cool beans." Justin answered sitting in the recliner, "How did Bonaparte take it?"
Remy looked down, "Not good. Marie said that Logan was helping himself to some Jack Daniels then he left she thinks."
Justin let out a breath, "What am I going to do Rems?"
"Don't know chere. Remy really not the person you should ask for advice." He smiled, "This Cajun just learning to be a one woman man." The brother and sister started laughing waking up Marie.
"What time is it swamp rat?" Marie said groggily.
"It's a little past 12." Justin answers for him.
Marie rubbed her eyes, "Professor J. Ya back. How was ya date?"
"It was good." Justin said rising from chair, "I'm going to take a shower and go to bed. I have a lot of cookies and cakes to make tomorrow. Goodnight."
"Night," they both replied.
Marie and Remy began cleaning up the food and Marie asked, "Ya think her and Thor are becoming serious."
"Don't know petite but my sister is happy but a little confused." He answered.
"It's all Logan's fault." Marie huffed wrapping the bowl of wings in Reynolds wrap, "Dat stubborn man shoulda just told her how he felt."
Remy grabbed Marie face so she could look into his eyes, "Its hard chere to tell a woman how ya feel about her. Especially if ya think you're not good enough." He grabbed a piece of wrap and put it over her mouth and kissed her. "Remy cared about ya and want to make it official about our relationship. So will like as they say go study." He began wigging his eyebrows.
Tears began to fill her eyes, "Remy Ah feel da same but… gawsh. Ya know ah cant control ma mutation. Ya willing to stay with me."
Remy hugged and said, "Remy willing if ya are. So ya going to give this Cajun boy a chance?"
"Yes." Marie nodded.
Remy turned her around the kitchen laughing. "Remy promise you won't regret it chere."

Justin's loft
Justin took off her clothes and hopped into the shower. As she was showering, she had an uneasy feeling. She quickly hopped out, turning the water off and water bending the water from her skin to dry herself. She threw on her robe and created some fog using the steam from the shower before opening the door, coming out in defensive stance.
"No need for dat Josie." Logan replied, "I'm not here to hurt ya." ~Oh No He Didn't. ~
Justin used her bending to get rid of the fog and said, "What the hell Bonaparte? Why are you in my room?"
Logan looked her over with her long light blue silk bathrobe that clung to her body, "Ah need to talk to ya. Seeing how ya almost killed me twice dats the least ya can do."
Justin left out a frustrated sigh, "Breaking into my room. Really?"
"Da girls bragged about how nice your place was." he said admiring the surrounding, "Shit this place beats the hell out of my room."
Justin took her hair down and went to her vanity, "That still doesn't give you the right to breaking and entering." She said brushing her hair, "So are you going to talk or what?"
Logan walked next to her looking at her in the mirror. "Do ya care about him?" Justin stops brushing her hair.
"Huh?"
"Ya heard me do ya care about him?"
Justin snorted rising to go back into the bathroom to brush her teeth, "That not any of your business."
He stopped her in mid stride, "I need to know! Do ya care about him?"
"Like I said. It's … Non… of... your… business" she scowled, "I don't see why you care anyway."
"It is my business." He said trying to control his temper, "I know what the son of a bitch Sabretooth told you. You forget how good my hearing is Darlin."
~ Oh no. ~ She thought as her eyes widen. "So. Like he said you haven't mated with me so I can still see however I want. That's the reason why you followed us tonight?"
Logan got perplexed look on his face, "Followed? What the hell you talking about?"
"When me and Thor were on our date, we both felt like someone was following us." She informed him, "It wasn't you?"
Logan shook his head, "No I was here all night."
Justin sat on her bed and began thinking, "So who was it?" she said softly to herself.
Logan eyes began to turned black and started breathing heavy, "I'm going to fucking kill him!"
"Who? Tell me?" she pleaded trying to restrain him from leaving.
"Fucking Creed." He said and snatches away from her and went out the balcony doors.
~ OH FUCK! ~ Justin them immediately contacted Charles
*Charles! Please Charles I need your help.*
*What is it my dear?*
*It's Bonaparte... I mean Logan he's going after Creed. It's my fault. All my fault.*
*Ok. Try to stay calm and let me scan your mind.*
*Oh my, he's feral. I will get try to get hold of him but like you my dear it's impossible to penetrate his mind I will have to use Cerebro if his doesn't have his communicator. I will alert Scott and others.*
Justin sat on her bed for a second, ~ I can't let him get hurt or kill his brother no matter what he says. ~ She went to her closet and putting on some clothes, ~I think I need to pay an old friend a visit.~

Brotherhood Hideout
Abandon Building in the outskirts of New York
The Avatar Justin had information on the whereabouts of every White Lotus member. The members were sworn to provide sanctuary to the Avatar if needed. The Avatar also had loyalty to the members. Justin knew that with Logan in his berserker rage, which the lives of Magneto and other were in jeopardy if they didn't give up Creed. She also didn't want Logan to do something he might regret.
Justin knocks on the door.
"Yea who is it?"
"I need to talk to Magneto, Tell him it's Avatar Justin and its urgent." Justin then stood there for a second and an eyehole was then opened and the Blob replied, "Game piece."
Justin then went into her pocket and pulls out a Pai Sho White lotus tile and gave it to him through the hole. The Blob then went and showed Magneto and came back minute later. "K. He say to let ya in." Justin walked into the room and to her surprise the inside was every nice.
Mystique greeted her. "So you're the Avatar. I see why Logan has a thing for you. He always was attracted to beautiful women of power."
"Nice to meet you too. I've heard stories about you from my father." She gave the blue woman a sly smile. "You're quite the famous villain."
Mystique then transformed into General Fury, "Oh I am." Then transformed back, "He's waiting for you in the study. It's right down the hall, first door to your left."
Justin began to walk down the hall but turn and says, "Don't worry. I'm not going to tell them." Mystique gave her a confused look and Justin states, "I know who you are Raven. I'm not going to tell Kurt and Marie but you should. Everyone has the right to know their family especially their mother." She then walks off.
Mystique eyes began to well, "One day when their ready."

Justin found Magneto seating in front of the fireplace with a book. "I see you still like to read."
Magneto rose and bowed, "Avatar Justin. So good to see you."
Justin bowed back and they both sat with Erik offering her some tea, "Great seeing you. But enough of the formalities, you guys might be in danger. Where's Creed?"
"Creed. Is that the reason why you came here?" he asked
"It's Logan he's in feral mode and looking for Creed. I came here to warn you out of loyalty."
Magneto smiled at her. "Or so I wouldn't hurt him."
"Let me guess, Creed told you about the mating thing." She said taking a sip.
Erik then debated to tell her that it was Cassandra that saw in a vision that Justin was going fall for a strong and noble warrior. Someone that was from her past. ~ The Oracle is always right.~ he thought but he did hear Mystique and Creed talking about them.
"Victor's never been the one to gossip but I did hear him telling Raven." He answered.
"So Raven and Victor are together. I thought she was with you after she left Forge."
Erik shook his head, "She was my lover a long time ago but she's with Victor now."
"That's one scary combo." Justin shuddered, "You're ok with them."
He sat down his cup," When you get my age a lot of things you learn to deal with things."
"So is he here?" ~ Please say no.~
Erik tore out a piece of paper and wrote something down and handed to her. "You should find him there."
Justin looked at the directions and rose, "Thanks. I'll see what I can do. Hopefully I'll get there in time."
"As much trouble he gives me, Creed is a superb solider and I don't want to lose him anytime soon." He stated, "The prophecy is coming and we need all the help we can get."

A/N
So the oracle Cassandra had a vision about Logan and Justin but she didn't acutually see Logan's face but knew Justin would finally find love when she was still young student at the Avatar temple. All of the members of the order knew about it.
Like I said before Justin and Logan have met before but doesn't remember. Was it when she was a baby? Child? Or even a Teen? You guys are going to have to wait to see.
Pai Sho is a two-player strategy game that is popular throughout the World of Avatar, appealing to people of all ages. Dating back to the era of Raava, legend has that it was invented by the spirits and the game has remained popular among people all over the world since that time. Pai Sho was used by the Order of the White Lotus to identify its members prior to the group's existence being publicly revealed.
The white lotus tile, like all Pai Sho tiles, is a round, black, circular piece about one-and-a-half inches in diameter. It is identified by the image of a large white flower that takes up most of the tile.
